On an extended weekend alpine ascent when every ounce of weight and versatility is scrutinized the Arc'teryx Khamsin 50 is a well balanced mid-sized designed that traverses the requirements. Loaded with alpine features and highly modular this pack can be extended to deliver a monster payload and then stripped down and compressed for light forays or a summit bid. When fully loaded the V-frame suspension removable aluminum stays removable hipbelt with thermoformed hip pods removable hip belt gear loops removable dual density framesheet and removable/extendable lid pack a whole lot of carrying comfort. Strip it all down and it converts to a summit pack with just the necessities to tag the top. |
